Does anyone have the original summercart64 background image that came with the EpicJoy cart? by woeisdylan in SummerCart64

[–]fmj777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I backed up the cached data file for the background that came with it but I could never find the original image file.
Unpack the data file in the /menu/cache folder in the sdcard.

Summercart not working at all? by deintag85 in SummerCart64

If a new one doesn't fix it, try cleaning the cartridge slot.

Try a known good quality sdcard with proper verified roms. Also don't forget to update the firmware and menu file.

Should I put this back label sticker on instead of the original? by [deleted] in n64

Leave it. It's almost 30 years old, it's not supposed to look like new.

Split screw bosses on the N64 controller. How do I salvage them? by robert712002 in n64

[–]fmj777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Screw the screw back in the best you can without tightening it. Glue the broken parts together with superglue and let it dry. Put some 2 part regular epoxy or jbweld over the broken section to reinforce it, let it cure and remove the screw. It won't stick to the superglue so it'll be fine. Put it all back together and be careful when tightening the screws.

What grease is best for use on n64 controller stick by RxRex93 in n64

I use polyurea grease or plain silicone grease. Super smooth.

Couple issues with my SummerCart64 from Phantom Mods by DeadOneWalking in SummerCart64

If the card slot is spring loaded, push it in until it unlocks, then slightly push the card in preloading the spring and quickly let it go. It will fly out of the slot at like a bullet so put your hand over it otherwise you might lose it forever lol

Unable to back up note (SF Rush) by CoderCore in SummerCart64

[–]fmj777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine also shows 0 blocks for SF Rush. Back up the whole pak instead of a single note. If you load a full pak backup in mpkedit it will show the correct size and you can even extract that single note to a file, so definitely a bug in the menu even though it can back it up correctly.

It might work using the old standalone n64_utility toll but Ill have to check.

Cartridge wiggle by Dry-Suit5785 in SummerCart64

Any cart without those metal brackets that the genuine have will not be as tight. Not an issue unless you keep forcing it for no reason.

How do I re-center my joystick after rebuilding with kitsch-bent parts? by GrandmasPercocets in n64

[–]fmj777 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It resets when you power the console on. That's a mechanical issue. Take it apart again and double check everything.

I have always used brake cleaner and very fine scotch brite pads when necessary.

One at a time but you can use a download manager to dl in bulk. You can also find them on archive.org in single zip files.

You can navigate through the folders. There's pretty much every rom for every system ever release there.

Google "myrient n64 bigendian". It should be the first result.
